Re: Question to americans

[(Anonymous)]

Honestly, as an American, I don't believe that people are normally driving so much. At least not as a regular thing. I don't think that anyone is driving 8 hours two ways without it being an exceptional super weird thing, and very few people are driving more than 4 or 5 hours a day unless they work as a truck driver or delivery person or something.

Like... from Chicago, it's about 4.5 hours to St. Louis or Cincinnati. I could see someone doing that as a day trip, maybe, although it'd be intense. There's no way anyone is doing that as a commute. It's about 6.5 hours to Omaha and about 8 hours to Memphis - the idea of doing Omaha or Memphis there-and-back in a single day from Chicago is absolutely batshit insane.

So, yeah, I think people are strongly overemphasizing how much driving they actually do. Even for Americans, that's crazy. Even if it feels like that's how long you've been driving when you're stuck in traffic.

Thank you!
I am from a large country and I had road trips though I don't enjoy them much. I don't even enjoy long (more than a day) train rides. And my cousin actually were doing quite regular daily trips that took 4 hours one way. But 8 hour thing seems like a bullshit to me

We drive to a destination (visiting family) that's an 18-hour drive and we do this once a year or so. It's a two-day trip. Yes, it's pretty grueling! I didn't mind it as much when I was 25 vs 45.

I've done one 12 hour and one 9 hour drive in two days before, just stopping for gas, bathroom breaks, and snacks.

A couple of considerations: if you have two or more people in the car, it's usually cheaper than flying because gas isn't as expensive here as some other places. And you can swap out drivers. Plus, then you have your car at your destination. Some road trips are better than others, if the scenery is good.

I prefer trains :'D
Also I really hate having car in a city, such a bother.
My father though is 12 hour drive kind of guy.

Yeah, 8hrs two ways is over the top. 8hrs total - 4hrs there and 4hrs back - I would believe but not 16hrs of driving in one day.

I do know people that commute 3hrs each way, 6 total, daily - I live about 3hrs from a major city and some people buy property here because it is cheaper but still work in the city. As someone with a 5min commute I can't even imagine. But then I have a job that no matter where I work I won't be able to afford a house so what do I know.
